Hello Everybody:
The California Center for the Book is in the process of expanding its
website to include information about book arts throughout California. We
will have the segment up and running by the middle of September (keeping our
fingers crossed).
In order to keep these pages dynamic, we need your help. If you are
hosting or know of any events related to the books arts; workshops,
lectures, exhibitions, field trips, movies, etc., we would like to know
about it. We are also more than happy to link your site with our own.
We would also like to include individual artists who are amenable to having
their URL or snail mail addresses up on the site. Eventually we hope to have
a searchable database which will include as many organizations and
individuals as possible.
Thanks in advance!
About the California Center for the Book:
The new California Center for the Book was inaugurated by Dr James
Billington, Librarian of Congress, Dr Kevin Starr, California State
Librarian, and Dr John Y. Cole, Director of the Center for the Book at the
Library of Congress,in a ceremony which took place at the University of
California, Los Angeles, January 21, 2000.
The new Center is now headquartered in the Department of Information Studies
at UCLA, and has been remodeled to comprise twelve partner libraries
distributed across the state. California is one of the first Centers for the
Book to implement a decentralized partnership model. The benefits afforded
by this model are threefold: representatives from each partner library make
up an advisory board and bring a range of strengths to bear on the Center
and its initiatives, vision and direction; we have opportunities for a
variety of stand-alone and collaborative programs and ongoing statewide
initiatives; and we are in an excellent position to facilitate dialog and
information exchange among librarians, booksellers, teachers, students and
readers across the state.
At the California Center for the Book, our vision is to promote the
importance of reading, to improve literacy levels in California, to
encourage the study of the book, book arts and printing, and to celebrate
the book.
